Exchanging Data: Civil Designer and ModelMaker
Previously, importing a DTM file from Civil Designer into ModelMaker resulted in the loss of some breakline information. The user had to export the DTM as an ASCII file and then import the file into ModelMaker, but the breaklines were not included. In version 6.4 of Civil Designer, a new feature has been added to solve this problem
The project in Civil Designer

To import the file into ModelMaker (only works with version 5 and later)

Due to the different systems used, a message will appear when importing the CDM file.
